Faculty Scholarship – Economics
In this paper presented at the Wesleyan Theological Society Annual Meeting in March 2014, two professors from Olivet Nazarene University – one from the field of Economics and the other from Theology – address the intersection of Wesleyan theology and ethics with the theoretical foundations of capitalism. The paper consists of four major sections:
- A Wesleyan voice in the capitalist jungle
- The compatibility of capitalism and Wesleyan thought
- Elements of Wesleyan theology most relevant to capitalism
- Toward a Wesleyan approach to free market economics
